LIVING BY THE WORD
Text; Heb 4:12-13
INTRODUCTION
The word of God remain
inactive, blunt, dead, powerless and without any edge when it remains on the
paper. From Exodus to Deut. ‘Thus says Jehovah’ is repeated over two thousand
times. God and His word are one. So the word of God is God speaking to us. The
word is always now. What the word of God says many years ago is still working
now if we speak them to our situations. It is the duty of every Hero to
validate the word by speaking them to our situation Jesus is the word. Jesus is
the living word.
The word is called the
Logos. Jesus is the Logos and the Logos is the living word---not in the books
nor on the written papers but in the lips of the believer. There is no created
thing hidden from Him… this living .The Word searches us out, finds us.
Heroes live by the word of God
